Sounds like the battery is out of calibration. Its really the phone but the popular phrase is battery calibration. Its not charging past 50% because its actually fully charged but the phones meter is off. and it still dies at zero percent because thats where it suppposed to shut down at.

If the phone isnt rooted allow it to completely die before charging completely several times and you may end up having to do a factory reset after one of these full charging cycles to get the phone to measure the charge correctly. or root it and download a battery calibration app of the market. not optimizer but a calibrater.

If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
